The VeganFoodWork take

Old Bangkok vegan cooking, with a class next door.

May Kaidee is a strong choice when the meal itself is only part of the plan. The Samsen Soi 5 restaurant serves the brand's original fully vegan Thai menu, while the same active Bangkok location also runs hands-on cooking classes for travellers who want to take the techniques home.

100% vegan

The current Bangkok page describes May Kaidee as an authentic Thai vegan restaurant, and the official FAQ says the food is 100% vegan with no animal products.

Good to know

The details that prevent surprises.

Book a Bangkok cooking class

Use the Samsen Soi 5 location

May Kaidee has operated several Bangkok locations over time. The current restaurant page identifies 54/1 Samsen Soi 5 as the active Bangkok restaurant; the separate Tanao Road site is marked closed for renovation.

Treat the price as a benchmark

The official FAQ publishes an approximate Bangkok average rather than a current item-by-item local menu. Confirm current dish and class prices directly before relying on a budget estimate.

Book classes separately

Restaurant opening hours and class times are separate. The official class page lists morning and afternoon sessions plus specialist courses, but only options with a current registration link are being taught.

Ask about allergy preparation

The official information says most dishes can be adjusted and that many recipes use gluten-free ingredients, but exact cross-contact practices are not documented for the Bangkok kitchen. Contact the branch for allergy needs.
